Bob w88 online casino betting is known for sharing sweets with his students, carrying a small bowl of candies where ever he goes.

Donald W. Reynolds School of Journalism w88 online casino betting honoree Tiffany Moore knows a good story when she sees one.

Perhaps even more importantly, Moore knows the trenchant detail when she spots it.

In describing her faculty w88 online casino betting Bob Felten, Moore -- who was one of eight students honored by the University of Nevada, Reno Alumni Association as Senior Scholars on Dec. 6 in a ceremony held in the Joe Crowley Student Union - wrote that, "as I reflect on my college years, Bob Felten rises a candy-bowl above - if anything, because he instilled in me the determination to avoid his red pen."

Each semester, the University and the Alumni Association honor an undergraduate student from each school or college who meets the exceptional Senior Scholar program standards. The Senior Scholar then selects the faculty w88 online casino betting who played the most significant role in his/her scholastic achievement.

As formidable as w88 online casino betting's red editing pen can be, it's also the first part of Moore's statement that rings true.

w88 online casino betting, who has earned a reputation as one of the campus' finest instructors, is known for his love and use of sweets (chocolate in particular) in the classroom.

w88 online casino betting, a former newspaperman and advertising and public relations professional, shares sweets with his students from an ever-present candy bowl with the same élan he uses when preaching the tenets of clear writing.

The candy might be eaten quickly. But w88 online casino betting's writing and journalistic lessons often remain, forming a firm professional bedrock for many of his students.

Moore is just one example. There are many others. So many others, in fact, that during the Dec. 6 ceremony, Felten was also chosen by Audrey Hill, the College of Business' top graduate, as her faculty w88 online casino betting as well.

It is one of the few times in the history of the award where a professor has been chosen as a faculty w88 online casino betting by graduating students from two different colleges.

Hill said w88 online casino betting, through the constant stressing of good writing, helped find her voice.

"My w88 online casino betting, Bob Felten," Hill said, "taught me to write a story, my story."

For Moore, w88 online casino betting's influence proved direction-changing. Moore said she only took one course from w88 online casino betting. It was more than enough, however, to convince Moore that a degree in journalism would be the perfect complement to also having a degree in English.

w88 online casino betting first helped Moore answer the question, "... if journalism was the right course, if I was really capable of what came with the title of 'Journalist.'"

Wrote Moore: "He challenged me to dig deeper to find the element of interest and to answer, 'Why does this information need to be shared?' And I wanted to prove to him that I could dig deeper and answer the question. During w88 online casino betting challenge of defeating that red ink, I discovered w88 online casino betting passion for writing to help people, encourage people, and share about people's successes. I also discovered that proving w88 online casino betting abilities to him was truly a process of proving w88 online casino betting abilities to myself with his guidance and encouragement."

The Senior Scholar w88 online casino betting awards aren't the first in Felten's long and distinguished career at the University.

A 1971 w88 online casino betting graduate, Felten has taught in the Reynolds School since 2000. For many years, Felten's played a central role in advising the w88 online casino betting's nationally powerful student integrated marketing communications team. Just last August, Felten was chosen by the readers of the Reno News & Review as the area's Best College Instructor.

In March 2011, Felten was roasted by a panel of RSJ w88 online casino betting and students, who, among other things, teased Felten about his love of chocolate.

At the time, the always quick-with-a-quip and perpetually smiling w88 online casino betting said, "I am humbled by the outpouring of ... whatever was outpouring."

If last week's Senior Scholar gathering was any indication, w88 online casino betting's personal cup of good fortune not only was pouring over with accolades from people he had profoundly influenced ... his candy bowl was getting its share of deserved recognition as well.

Here is a look at December 2012's w88 online casino betting honorees:

College of Agriculture, Biotechnology and Natural Resources

w88 online casino betting: Jade Keehn

Faculty w88 online casino betting: Dr. Chris Feldman

Keehn comment: "College is hard, mostly because learning is not a result of in-the-classroom-osmosis, but rather an active, hard process requiring ironclad willpower. And it doesn't stop outside of the classroom. College is just as much about learning history, culture, and science as it is about learning your boundaries and finding creative ways to stretch them."

College of Business

w88 online casino betting: Audrey Hill

Faculty w88 online casino betting: Mr. Robert Felten

Hill comment: "In fall 2008 I began my journey of fulfilling this dream (of one day working in Major League Baseball). Since then, (the w88 online casino betting) has surpassed my expectations. ... My family taught me to field as many opportunities as possible and swing for the fences."

College of Education

w88 online casino betting: Danielle Schwiesow

Faculty w88 online casino betting: Dr. John Cannon

College of Engineering

w88 online casino betting: Melinda Havenstrite

Faculty w88 online casino betting: Dr. David Sanders

Havenstrite comment: "Choosing to go to college at w88 online casino betting Nevada, Reno was not a difficult decision for me.

After one of her courses, despite having only one semester left, I decided to pursue a second minor in religious studies."

Donald W. Reynolds School of Journalism

w88 online casino betting: Tiffany Moore

Faculty w88 online casino betting: Mr. Robert Felten

College of Science

w88 online casino betting: Shane McGuire

Faculty w88 online casino betting: Dr. Jennifer Hollander

McGuire comment: "While attempting to figure out college, I decided to explore where w88 online casino betting talents might lie.

As I am a quick study, I learned this was not w88 online casino betting forte. I then tried dodgeball with much better results. w88 online casino betting team received the prestigious title of intramural dodgeball champions."

w88 online casino betting: Ikketsu Hayashi

Faculty w88 online casino betting: Dr. Paul Devereux
